My daughter (at 5) was singing a song and one of the lines she was singing was "we're on the planet of the sun." I thought that was an odd thing to sing and I asked her where she heard it.
Her response: "A black human."
"A black human?" I questioned. It's the word "human" that's caught my attention.
She said in her explanatory voice, "Yeah, you know, they're really brown but people call them black. Like Kiaya [her cousin] and Uncle Mark."
She cracks me up. What little kid calls people humans??
Apparently she saw a woman singing the song with Elmo on Sesame Street...that was the black human. Oh, and if you're curious the song is called "We Are All Earthlings".
